Brooke van Velden steps away from politics to, we guess, be a lobbyist and earn screeds of cash
The govt reveals their plan to help Kiwis at the pump, is it a win for struggling Kiwi's or not?
PM Christopher Luxon has denounced the illegal actions of Iran in the Strait of Hormuz but not the war crimes of Israel and the US starting this conflict
They are not dog whistles; they are dog foghorns that Winston Peters is blowing for voters from the conspiracy community in NZ
Winston Peters is overtly pitching to the One Nation Australia, MAGA and Reform UK type voters in NZ and, like in those countries, it's working in the polls for him
The polls are showing National hovering around the 30% mark and NZ First making inroads but still a distance away however, Winston Peters is within spitting distance of Luxon as preferred PM and we wonder where that could lead through 2026.
Nicola Willis announces policy to help ease the pressure at the pump but there are no details on how specifically how that policy will get more fuel to NZ
Luxon has no answers for Mike Hosking on specific strategies for relief at the pump and we think it's not that he's keeping his cards close, it's that he has no ideas
Winston Peters knows the audience he is trying to activate. If there were in Australia they would vote for Pauline Hansen, if they were in the UK they would vote Reform and they'd be MAGA in the US so his messaging is pandering to those groups.
Quilae Wong is asked "coal or gas" and she gives an answer given that binary, however she goes on to expand her thoughts saying renewables might be a better option that coal or gas.
